Interesting how high Blake Lewis and his beatboxing is, must be all the teenage girls...

Blake Lewis may be *the* most overvalued competitor. He is the only one of the frontrunners that I believe can not win under any circumstance. He will make the finals as a result of his pre-vote popularity, but beyond that his gimmick will wear thin and Simon will tell him it's time for him to go.

I am glad that Antonella and Sanjaya are up there. I feel that Sanjaya has nowhere to go but up, and Antonella will likely be the top female finisher (although Melinda and Jordin should be her steepest gendered competition).

I am always wrong about everything, so you should probably fade this.
